Description

Re-introducing Thread Labs 1.0! We are re-running this subscription series that was curated by Auriful in celebration of their 40th Anniversary. Thread Labs is a six part series that tells the story of Aurifil– from their history and unique production process to an in-depth education on their revered threads. It was developed as a no-fuss program for you in reaction to the increased consumer demand for thread education. From April through September, you will gain the necessary tools to more confidently create with a variety of thread weights and techniques, and you will finish the year inspired, armed with new skills and a wealth of knowledge.

The subscription is a must-have for both the Aurifil enthusiast and novice. Each lab presents a project designed to educate and inspire via a featured thread weight. A secure online portal plays host to exclusive content including downloadable project PDFs, educator interviews, thread tutorials, and more. Month one provides early access to our newfangled swatch book, an exploratory Aurifilosophy session with Aurifil’s Master Educator, Karen L. Miller, as well as other essentials.

Ships April - September 2024. The price is $110 per month and the price includes shipping to the US. International shipping will be calculated per our Shipping Rates and added at the time of shipment.
